Replacement barrel for Normandy 4?

Author: Matt74

I bought a clarinet to fix up, but when I got it discovered the barrel was cracked in several places (even the metal ring!). It's not really fixable. Postage to retun it will end up exceeding the price I paid.

It's a Normandy 4, all wood, straight Noblet/Vito style trill keys. All keys have their own posts. SN# 80725. "Normandy 4" on a shield are on the top and bottom joints. "Normandy" without a "4", is on a shield on the barrel and bell, with an extra line. See pictures. 64mm barrel. The bore seems to be 14.92mm.

What are good inexpensive replacement options with the same dimensions? (Would Noblet or Vito barrels work?)

Thanks.
